Tunku Abdul Aziz Tunku Ibrahim today said it was unfair and ridiculous for Transparency International President Jose Ugaz to say that Malaysia was facing a corruption crisis and a failed state. "It is an unfair comment to make. Transparency International has been ill-advised," said the Anti-Corruption Advisory Board Chairman. He refuted Ugaz’s statement, saying one unsolved case that had been "haunting Malaysia" does not prove that the country is in a crisis. Ugaz, in his speech at the 16th International Anti-Corruption Conference (IACC) said Malaysia is facing a corruption crisis following the unanswered allegations of the RM2.6 billion "donation" which was allegedly transferred into Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s personal bank account. "The speech made by the President of Transparency International (yesterday), where he repeated the charge that Malaysia is in a corruption crisis; I think that this statement is ill-advised; ...
